Chapter 159 Hospital Incident



This is Yuan Fangguo's character. He decided to do it.

Of course, it's not a brute force approach, but rather a planned one.

After discussing with Li Chunli, they found that the two of them could only come up with 900,000 yuan at the moment. 900,000 yuan was probably far from enough to take over the hospital, but Yuan Fangguo decided to first own the operating rights of the hospital in the form of a lease.

The next day, he got up early and drove straight to the Hongqi Machinery Factory.

When he arrived at the hospital entrance, he was surprised to see that there were more than a dozen people who looked like old cadres or old workers gathered at the hospital entrance.

The hospital gate was still tightly locked with a thick iron chain. Upon closer inspection, the group of people seemed to be reading a notice.

With a look of curiosity, Yuan Fangguo walked quickly up and started to watch with the factory workers.

It turned out to be a public notice that the hospital was going to be sold, with a starting price of 1.2 million. Interested parties could negotiate.

He didn't expect that the hospital was actually going to be sold. With his current capital, he would definitely not be able to get it at this price.

"Why was such a good hospital sold?" Yuan Fangguo couldn't help but sigh.

His words caused several workers to turn around and look at him. Seeing that it was a young man they didn't know, a tall, burly man with a scar on his face, he said in a gruff voice with an unhappy look on his face, "Young man, why can't we sell this hospital? We can't even pay our workers' wages. If we don't sell the hospital, how are we going to eat?"

The worker's tone was filled with disdain, and his eyes were full of contempt.

Yuan Fangguo wasn't angry. He smiled and said, "Uncle, what is this hospital? It's related to the health of your factory workers. Have you ever thought about what would happen if you got sick if this hospital was sold?"

"For minor illnesses, the factory doctor is in the office building and can treat them," the worker said loudly.

"The factory can't even pay salaries. Do you think the doctor is stupid? Why doesn't he go to work at the new boss's hospital? Why is he still hanging around in this shabby factory and refusing to leave?"

"Then we can also see a doctor in this hospital. It will definitely be cheaper than going to the town." An old man who looked like a cadre said with his hands behind his back.

"Does this hospital offer discounts?"

"It must be given."

"Why are you so confident? When this hospital is sold, it's likely to be taken over by a private owner. As a private owner, their biggest concern is their own profits, and you might be their biggest source of profit. You might end up being the hospital's butcher."

"Just sell it cheaper." These workers basically spend their entire lives in the factory and have little exposure to the social customs and dangers of the outside world.

"We can't sell it too cheaply. If we sell it too cheaply, it will benefit those damn corrupt officials. Who knows what shameful things they are doing in private." The old cadre shook his head.

"If we sell it too high, our workers will definitely not be protected." Uncle Scar insisted on his point.

Soon, the dozen or so workers formed two factions, both of which were very stubborn and refused to give in to each other.

This effect was exactly what Yuan Fangguo wanted. He cleared his throat and said loudly, "Dear leaders and seniors, please be quiet for a moment. I have an opinion, which is a compromise. I wonder if it will satisfy everyone."

"What do you think?" The old cadre looked at him eagerly.

"I don't understand why this staff hospital is not open to the public?" Yuan Fangguo did not immediately express his opinion, but asked this question.

"Young man, let me correct you. This hospital was once open to the public. I was the director of the security department at the factory at that time. About five years ago, we, the first group of old employees who came to the Red Flag Machinery Factory, analyzed and summarized that opening to the public had several disadvantages. First, after opening to the public, the hospital was not so enthusiastic about the factory employees. Sometimes we couldn't get a number for hospitalization and had to endure it. We had to wait for the doctor to see the doctor and had to look at the doctor's face from time to time. Everyone had contributed their whole lives to the factory and felt very disappointed. Second, if it was rented out to the public without strong supervision, it would inevitably lead to absolute corruption. The employee hospital was open to the public for a total of three years. During these three years, the medical staff had We've had four directors, one of whom is a complete idiot. But these guys, including several factory leaders, have all received generous paychecks, living lavishly and caring nothing about the workers. The first two points are about money, and the last one is about safety. After we opened to the public, some local thugs took advantage of the factory's wide-open doors and stole a lot of stuff. As the director of security, I was constantly being scolded by the factory leaders. Many cases couldn't be solved without catching the culprits in the act. I couldn't eat or sleep well every day. See? That's when my hair started falling out in clumps..."

The remaining workers agreed with the words of the former director of the Security Department. In their view, corruption was indeed the thing that employees hated the most. The leaders above did not care about the lives of the employees below. In addition, state-owned enterprises have been undergoing reforms in the past two years. The leaders have no intention of doing their work. They only think about how to make some money and then leave.

"By the way, comrade, what was the opinion you just expressed?" the old director couldn't help but ask.

Yuan Fangguo smiled and said, "Seniors, let's be frank. I'm interested in taking over this staff hospital, but since I know it will definitely need to be preserved in the future, I'm thinking of leasing it..."

Before Yuan Fangguo could finish his words, Scar Uncle started yelling, "So you're in cahoots with them. You look like a decent person, but you're actually full of evil."

When Scar Uncle got angry, his facial features were twisted into one, which made people feel scared.

Uncle Scar and the old director had some conflicts before, and Yuan Fangguo also noticed that among the more than ten people, the two of them also had their own factions. Uncle Scar joined in the fun this time, and the employees in his group also began to become indignant. In their opinion, Yuan Fangguo was also the kind of capitalist who ate human flesh and drank human blood and would not spit out human bones.

Some excited workers even raised their fists high, perhaps just waiting for Uncle Scar's order to give a good beating to this evil capitalist.

"Wang Dafu, don't act like a reckless man all day. Let this comrade finish what he is saying." Seeing that the group of people who were opposed to him were about to attack Yuan Fangguo, the old director couldn't help but shout loudly. Relying on his prestige in the factory, he was able to control the emotions of this group of people a little.

"Young man, go ahead." The old director then said to Yuan Fangguo with a pleasant expression.
